Supreme Court Puts Centre's Fact-Check Unit on Hold, Cites Protection of Freedom of Speech| Oneindia

The Supreme Court pauses the implementation of the Fact Check Unit, introduced by the Centre, amid concerns over freedom of expression.

Stand-up comic Kunal Kamra and the Editors Guild of India raised objections, fearing censorship and infringement of rights.

The Unit, part of IT rules, aimed to combat fake news but faced criticism over potential stifling of social media expression.

The legal battle now unfolds in the apex court.
